Correct Indexing problem

I recently redirected an old site to a new site. All the URLs were the same except the domain. When I redirected them I failed to realize the new site had https enable on all pages. I have noticed that Google is now indexing both the http and https version of pages in the results. How can I fix this? I am going to submit a sitemap but don't know if there is more I can do to get this fixed faster.

Okay I may have understood your original post differently then what you meant.

So the case is you have HTTPS enabled, but Google is Indexing Both HTTP & HTTPS pages. However, you want them to only index the HTTP version. You are also running a cart or checkout which is only HTTPS which is likely not relevant to Google so I would recommend blocking those pages with robots.txt.

I would recommend coding an IF statement to deal with duplicate indexing (https & http) & setting up a robots.txt file to prevent crawling pages that have no value and are there for customer use only.
